Safety Week

This weekend marks the start of an important event at every resort. The NSAA has called for a National Safety Awareness Week to begin on January 13th until the 19th.

While it's good to see a little more attention paid to the skier responsibility code during the week, the challenge to make sure they stick all year around. To help, the rule intstructors are consistently told to use is CLOVER:

C - Control, always ski/ride in control.
L - Lifts, know how to use them.
O - Observe, observe the posted signs and warnings. Rope ducking sucks.
V - Visible, always be visible on the trail.
E - Enter/Exit, Be aware of all enterences and exits and their traffic.
R - Restraints must be used on your equipment at all times.

But do remember to still have fun too :)
